Andrezj Kolarov Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 So basically the same as Government Type, there should be a National Religion customization option. Here's a list I came up with: Christianity (Catholic) Christianity (Protestant) Christianity (Orthodox) Christianity (Anglican) Christianity (Resorationism) Islam (Sunni) Islam (Shia) Islam (Ibadi) Islam (Sufi) Judaism Buddhism Hinduism Sikhism Baha'i Jainism Shinto Zoroastrianism Traditional/ethnic religion None (Secular) None (Atheist) 6 Quote People's Republic of Velika: National Information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abu Haddad Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Sufis are Sunnis. If you add Sufi Islam you must add Salafi Islam Instead of Judaism add reformed Judaism and Haredi Judaism on the whole good idea. How about we group religions together and each group provides bonuses. eg. Abrahamic Religions. 5% Cash Bonus Iranian Religions. 5% Military Recruitment Bonus. Indian Religions. 5% Base population increase East Asian Religions. 5% Manufacture Increase African Religions. 5% Raw Material IncreaseIndigenous Religions. 2% Disease Decrease in every City Non Religion. 2% Crime Reduce in every City 2 Quote Caliph of The Caliphate of Arabia.

Andrezj Kolarov Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) Sufis are Sunnis. If you add Sufi Islam you must add Salafi Islam The opinion on this seems to be divided (http://www.differencebetween.net/miscellaneous/difference-between-sunni-and-sufi/) so I chose to make Sufi it's own option. Instead of Judaism add reformed Judaism and Haredi Judaism I chose not to split Judaism firstly because it's probably not big enough a religion to justify that, and because if I added Haredi and Reform I'd also need to add Orthodox and Conservative, and it would clutter up the options (you notice I cut down the Christian options substantially when you consider how many groups exist in Christianity). on the whole good idea. How about we group religions together and each group provides bonuses. eg. Abrahamic Religions. 5% Cash Bonus Iranian Religions. 5% Military Recruitment Bonus. Indian Religions. 5% Base population increase East Asian Religions. 5% Manufacture Increase African Religions. 5% Raw Material Increase Indigenous Religions. 2% Disease Decrease in every City Non Religion. 2% Crime Reduce in every City No, bonuses are a bad idea because inevitably someone will break down the numbers and discover which one is the most profitable to switch to, and everyone will use it, regardless of RP. No bonus (like government types) is better because it's pure RP/customization.

Abu Haddad Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 No, bonuses are a bad idea because it inevitably someone will break down the numbers and discover which one is the most profitable to switch to, and everyone will use it. No bonus (like government types) is better because it's pure RP/customization. adding bonuses will create incentive and someone can find a balance between the numbers. This incentive for certain bonuses will create better role-play as it will make the game more diverse. eg, alliances wanting resources can mandate african religions and have that increase. Then alliance b buys more of these resources will get East Asian religion and manufacture more. This will crash the market lead to a war and more rp. Quote Caliph of The Caliphate of Arabia.

Arthur James Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) 1) What does the impact of having a religion? Will there Trigger Crusade when one religious nation was attacked??? 2) Does it look like the choice of government without any effect as we have at the moment? 3) It looks somewhat like (That terrible game that is totally irrelevant and I shouldn't be bringing it up anyways). 4) Add "Others: Type your own one which is not in the list" Edited April 6, 2016 by Arthur James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More rp the better.As for 3) if you'd rather it be like NS and we sit around all day and do nothing it'd be better to move towards more dynamic rp Quote Caliph of The Caliphate of Arabia.

Hereno Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) my main problem with this, and really it isn't a problem, is that you can get each sect/denomination/what have you down to the point where no matter what you do, someone is going to be excluded. that you're so interested in christianity and islam, while not a bad thing, says something, when you could quite easily "divide" the eastern religions the same way. hinduism - atheistic hinduism - main god vishnu (vaishnavist) hinduism - main god shiva (shaivist) hinduism - main god ganesha hinduism - main god XXXXXXXXXXX (you get the point) hinduism - bhakti hinduism - advaita vedanta hinduism - dvaita vedanta hinduism - dvishtadavaita hinduism - smartist buddhism - zen buddhism - mahayana buddhism - pure land buddhism - vajrayana buddhism - tibetan and there's plenty you've left out even for the christians. the cathars, the messalians, the copts, etc. point being, it may be better to have it be more limited in scope, with the possibility of personal distinctions made or even new religions made for the sake of IC RP, rather than attempting to include everyone but inevitably excluding some people Edited April 6, 2016 by Hereno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrezj Kolarov Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 It goes against my nation's theme which I can add to the factbook.... It should be left in a creative mark and not limited to RL religions. Factbook lists what percentage of your populations follows what religion, which is completely different than state-religion. A nation can have no state-religion (secular) but yet have a religious majority, like the USA/most countries. A country can have Christianity as state-religion but only 30% of the population might be Christian, and so on.

Bezzers Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I dont see why we shouldnt include certain things with enough followers. Im pretty sure dragonism is fairly serious roleplay, considering there are about 50+ active members that follow it in game, plus it is the official religion of Iberia and BoC Quote Roll Squeegee pact with Redarmy and Ameyuri Blues Brothers pact with Redarmy Leader of the Elyion Resistance.
